   Ingredients

  • 100g (4oz) butter, softened
  • 100g (4oz) light muscovado sugar
  • 15ml (1tbsp) golden syrup
  • 150g (5oz) self-raising flour
  • 75g (3oz) milk chocolate, cut into chunks

 

         Method

1. Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4.
2. Beat together the butter and sugar until pale and creamy, then beat in the syrup. Sift over the flour and work into the mixture to form a rough dough.
3. Divide the dough into 12 even-sized balls and place on 2 greased baking sheets with plenty of space between them. Slightly flatten each ball of dough and top with the chocolate chunks, pressing them lightly into the dough.
4. Bake for 12-14 mins until just set and a pale golden colour. Leave on the baking sheets for 5 mins, then transfer to a cooling rack and leave to cool completely (the cookies will firm on cooling).
